    🌟🌟🌟My best performing ETF in Q1 2024 is $Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$ as I am up 59%.   In just 1 trade I gain access to the Big US Oil giants.  Due to geopolitical tensions and war in the Middle East and Russia, there is currently an ongoing ban on Russian oil by US and its allies.  The Top 10 holdings include $Exxon Mobil(XOM)$  $Chevron(CVX)$ and Warren Buffett's favourite oil company $Occidental(OXY)$ .  I have bought XLE just before the Ukraine war and held it till now.  It has rewarded me with both capital growth and great dividends.

    Expecting it to be a strong year with the rate cuts in place! Many countries’ economies are heavily influenced by US and it is not surprising that many countries will raise along, especially as they also have their rate cuts in response too!

      Based on the available information, there are no specific articles or viewpoints regarding the market outlook for Q2 and the full year of 2024. However, I can provide you with some general insights based on historical market trends and current economic conditions.

      The strong performance of the S&P 500 in Q1, with a gain of 10.16%, is certainly impressive. The energy sector, driven by the rebound in crude oil prices, emerged as the biggest winner, followed by the information technology, financial, and industrial sectors. It is worth noting that NVIDIA Corp (NVDA) experienced a significant increase of 82%, leading the top ten largest US companies. On the other hand, Apple (AAPL) was the only company among the top ten that declined in Q1, with a decrease of 10%. Tesla Motors (TSLA) even fell out of the top ten rank.

      In addition to the US stock market, major global assets also performed well in the first quarter. Bitcoin rose by 66%, making cryptocurrencies the most watched asset class. The Nikkei Index also reached new highs, and the three major US stock indices collectively set new historical records.

      While these Q1 performances are positive, it is important to consider various factors that could influence the market in Q2 and the full year. Some factors to watch include:

      Economic indicators: Keep an eye on key economic indicators such as GDP growth, inflation rates, and employment data. These indicators can provide insights into the overall health of the economy and potentially impact market performance.

        

      Corporate earnings: The earnings reports of companies will continue to be closely watched. Strong earnings growth can support market gains, while disappointing earnings may lead to market volatility.

        

      Monetary policy: The actions and statements of central banks, particularly the Federal Reserve, can have a significant impact on market sentiment. Any changes in interest rates or monetary policy outlook could influence market performance.

        

      Geopolitical events: Geopolitical tensions, trade disputes, and other global events can create uncertainty in the market. It is important to stay informed about these developments and assess their potential impact on the markets.

        

      COVID-19 situation: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on public health, economies, and global supply chains remain a key consideration. Vaccine distribution, new variants, and government responses will continue to shape market sentiment.

        

      It is important to note that market performance is inherently uncertain and subject to various factors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Therefore, it is always recommended to diversify investments, conduct thorough research, and consult with a financial advisor before making any investment decisions.

    I wish upon a star that q2 would be even better than q1. strategies remain intact...

    1. auto invest in $Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF(QQQM)$, $SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 ETF(SPLG)$, occasionally $iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF(TLT)$

    2. DCA when the market pulls back

    3. trade on a couple for the thrill of it

    good luck to all. peace✌️

  • Where 2 for Q2? Im picking the two worst performers of Q1 (real estate and utilities) may be the best in Q2, if the Fed cuts interest rates or even if there’s just alot more speculation that rates will move down in Q3

    Liked and shared this article. The Market has an impressive run Q1 2024. It did not fail to reach new height even with the slower than expected coming lower interest rate. Now i feel like i am riding on the wall. Q2 might be volatile and frequently difficult to predict. Thanks for sharing

    另外,特朗普概念股也可以小小投机一下。我不排除有大户会以特朗普的胜算来拉高有关的公司股价

    我觉得q2 应该还是人工智能概念股的市场。看起来好像还有炒作的空间。建议投资英伟达,微软这些的。

    在美國十大公司中,$英偉達公司(NVDA)$上漲82%,領跑雄偉的7;


    $蘋果(AAPL)$是第一季度排名前十的公司中唯一一家下降了10%的公司。


    $特斯拉(TSLA)$甚至跌出了前十名的排名。

    Apr would be a good month, while we should see muted performance or a pullback in May n June, based on historical performances of the US stock market. 2nd half of the year should see a continuation of the bull market and the rest of the year should end strongly!

    You forgot about Gold also shooting high. Why has there been a sudden inflow of money to the stock, crypto market, and gold (safe haven assets)? This can be attributed to the quantitative easing (QE) implemented in 2019, which led to increased money supply. Now, with the Fed planning to reduce interest rates, investors are likely seeing an opportunity to release profits they made earlier.
